Cody is actually the only pet I have ever had who *didn't* come from a shelter or rescue. I've adopted one other dog, and 5 cats from shelters or rescues in my life. (1 dog and 2 cats from shelters, 3 other cats from rescues.) Right now Cody has two feline big sisters, one from a rescue and one from a shelter. So yes, I would totally adopt from a shelter. I just wanted to try a puppy this once.
